Body

In 1995 a project funded by the Australian Mining Industry Research Association was commenced to research the germination and establishment requirements of Triodia and Plectrachne hummock grass species. The University of Queensland sub-program provides facilities for work on seed germination, viability, dormancy and storage characteristics of a number of species endemic to the sponsoring mining operations (i.e. the Pilbara, Mt Isa and Tanami Desert regions). This paper outlines the project.
